Featuring a distinguished group of contributors and edited by a leading voice in creativity studies and an award-winning theatre composer, this collection fosters meaningful collaboration between academics and practitioners, offering insights that enrich both fields.Each chapter examines a key theme at the intersection of creativity and theatre—such as group creativity, emotion, constraints, and creative metacognition—and includes responses from Broadway and West End professionals. These responses, grounded in lived experience, offer illustrative examples, thoughtful challenges, and nuanced extensions of the scholars’ perspectives.This volume is a valuable resource for those in psychology, education, and creativity studies with an interest in theatre and performance.
